Procedure

4-(3-cyano-1-ethyl-6-methoxy-1H-indol-2-yl)-benzoic acid (50 mg, 0.16 mmol) is suspended in CH2Cl2 (2.2 mL) and catalytic DMF (2 μL). Oxalyl chloride (22 μL, 0.25 mmol) is added. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, at which time full dissolution occurred. This reaction mixture is pipetted dropwise into a vigorously stirring solution of morpholine (1.0 mL) in CH2Cl2 (5 ml). After addition is complete, the reaction mixture is washed with aqueous HCl solution. The organic layer is dried and concentrated. Purification by silica column (1:1 CH2Cl2/EtOAc) yields 1-ethyl-6-methoxy-2-[4-(morpholine-4-carbonyl)-phenyl]-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (56 mg, 90%) as a white solid.
